Not going to happen.  This gives the idea that the updates came from Red 
Hat, not from Fedora Legacy.  Red Hat wants to make sure there is a 
clear idea that Fedora Legacy packages are NOT Red Hat packages.  Our 
mirroring system is growing daily and our load isn't that bad on the 
servers.  We need more packagers and QA people than anything.
